Video Summary

In the video, the presenters discuss the placement and removal of metal stents in patients with various obstructions in the bile duct and duodenum. They mention that metal stents are preferred for patients needing chemotherapy and that fully covered stents tend to migrate more. They also discuss the risk of cholecystitis and pancreatitis, and the possibility of using gallbladder stents. The presenters mention that for hyaluronic structures, they prefer to place the stent transpapillary to ease future access. They conclude by discussing options for patients who have a duodenal stent and subsequently develop jaundice, such as internalization by interventional radiology or endoscopic techniques.
